In the not-so-distant past, Chinese phones had a terrible reputation. They were either knock-offs or just plain cheap phones filled with multiple pointless and annoying features - remember phones with five speakers? You won't see as many of those around now, but for some reason, the reputation has persisted.
The Gionee Elife S5.5 is a good-looking device and has a gorgeous 1080p screen. However, the camera is not that great, the Amigo UI on top of Android OS is a bit of a mess and it has heating issues.
